It was almost seven o'clock in the evening, Xiaojingzhai's Tingfeng Pavilion.

Gu Kaiwen raised his glass, "District Mayor Li, have another drink!"

Li Changfu raised his glass and touched Gu Kaiwen for a while, then took a refreshing taste of it.

Gu Kaiwen glanced at Li Changfu, and it was a two-liang wine glass. Li Changfu actually finished drinking it in one sip, which was indeed a bit beyond Gu Kaiwen's expectations.

Since Li Changfu was so happy, Gu Kaiwen naturally wouldn't take a sip and finish it.

After three rounds of wine.

Li Changfu looked red and looked at Gu Kaiwen and said, "Mr. Gu, I heard that you and Director Zhu are classmates in the same dormitory in the university?"

Gu Kaiwen smiled and nodded, "Yes."

"I ask Director Zhu to invite Mr. Gu today. Actually, there is something to talk about cooperation with Mr. Gu." Li Changfu said actively.

Gu Kaiwen asked back, "What kind of cooperation?"

"Mr. Gu is very passionate about the cause of natural environmental protection, right?" Li Changfu looked at Gu Kaiwen.

Gu Kaiwen nodded, this matter is no secret.

Especially when Gu Kaiwen took over the Shuixi Wetland Restoration Project in Shipan District, the news that he was passionate about natural environmental protection spread wildly and was widely known.

"I'm very curious, why Mr. Gu likes the cause of natural environmental protection?" Li Changfu asked, and immediately added, "Mr. Gu, I have no other intentions, I'm just simply curious."

Gu Kaiwen responded with a smile, "I just simply like the cause of natural and environmental protection."

Li Changfu did not continue this topic. No matter whether Gu Kaiwen was saying true or false, it had no meaning.

Anyway, Gu Kaiwen is indeed willing to pay for the cause of natural and environmental protection!

Is the others important?

"Mr. Gu, do you have any opinions on the Yangtze River and the Jiasheng River?" Li Changfu asked a big question of fuzzyness.

Gu Kaiwen joked, "Do I think? I think there is almost no floating garbage in the two rivers now?"

Li Changfu laughed loudly, "The two rivers are really not floating garbage now. Thanks to Mr. Gu, thanks to the river floating garbage cleaning project established by Mr. Gu!"

Gu Kaiwen waved his hand, "A small matter!"

Li Changfu looked at the calm Gu Kaiwen. He was not in a hurry and took the initiative to start the topic again, "Mr. Gu, you should know that the water quality of the Yangtze River is far inferior to that of the Jiasheng River, right?"

"Yes!" Gu Kaiwen nodded.

At the confluence of the Yangtze River and the Jiasheng River, the two rivers are clearly separated!

Among them, the clear water of the Jiasheng River forms a sharp contrast with the turbid river water of the Yangtze River.

"Does Mr. Gu know the reason?" Li Changfu asked.

Before Gu Kaiwen's answer, Li Changfu continued, "The amount of silt and sand in the Yangtze River is too high, which makes the river water very turbid. Mr. Gu should know this?"

Gu Kaiwen looked at Li Changfu who had been in circles, and he thought in his heart what purpose Li Changfu had.

"I know." Gu Kaiwen responded.

"Last year, the Ministry of Environmental Protection announced that the soil erosion area of ​​the Yangtze River was as high as 520,000 square kilometers, accounting for 28.9% of the Yangtze River Basin. In addition, according to statistics, this proportion is growing." Li Changfu revealed internal data.

"In the scope of our Shengqing City, the soil erosion area of ​​the Yangtze River is as high as 1,700 square kilometers. Even if the policy of returning farmland to forests is implemented, the current effect is still not good." Li Changfu looked worried.

Gu Kaiwen listened silently, and he had already understood the subtle voice of Li Changfu.

Li Changfu looked at the silent Gu Kaiwen and continued, "Since the beginning of 2013, the Ministry of Environmental Protection of the State has asked the provinces and cities in the Yangtze River Basin to control soil erosion. The governance effect of our Shengqing City is very poor. To be precise, our governance effect has even shown negative growth!"

"Oh?" Gu Kaiwen looked at Li Changfu in confusion.

"In 2013, the soil erosion area we counted in the Yangtze River Basin was only 1,100 square kilometers." Li Changfu said helplessly.

This year is 2017. After more than three years of governance, not only did it not control the soil erosion problem, but instead increased the soil erosion area of ​​600 square kilometers.

This is indeed very ‘excellent’!

"Isn't there a policy of returning farmland to forests now? Could it be that someone commits crimes against the wind?" Gu Kaiwen asked curiously.

"There are policies above and countermeasures below." Li Changfu said calmly, "We do advocate returning farmland to forests, but there are always problems in some poor areas. For example, in some poor areas, except for farmland that can be cultivated along the Yangtze River Basin, there is no other farmland. Do you think the people will do what they can return farmland to forests?"

Gu Kaiwen is silent.

Even in 2017, the lowest poverty-stricken areas still have to solve the problem of eating.

According to Li Changfu, if he was to return farmland to forests, he would have to destroy his job. How could he do anything about returning farmland to forests?

"Are there many such areas?" Gu Kaiwen asked again.

Li Changfu nodded, "A lot of it! What I just said, if we want to be precise, we have managed an area of ​​more than 400 square kilometers in more than three years."

Gu Kaiwen frowned, "When you were managing, has 1,000 square kilometers of soil erosion been added?"

"Yes." Li Changfu sighed, "The newly added soil erosion area is even part of the area we managed before. The income from returning farmland to forests is too low. Farmers who have lost farmland cannot get satisfactory harvests. They secretly reclaimed the area for returning farmland to forests."

"Is there no legal constraints?" Gu Kaiwen frowned.

"Of course there is!" Li Changfu responded, "What can I do even if there is legal constraints? Can I still arrest everyone? It is not a problem of one or two people, a problem of hundreds or thousands of people, no problem can be arrested?"

Gu Kaiwen smiled bitterly.

As the saying goes, the law does not punish the masses. If thousands of people have such a problem, it may be really difficult to deal with this problem.

"Do you have any solution?" Gu Kaiwen understood in his heart that it was probably Li Changfu who wanted to pull him into this deep pit and let him take over this difficult problem.

But Gu Kaiwen doesn't want to take over!

Just like the problem Li Changfu just mentioned, even if Gu Kaiwen invested in returning farmland to forests, as long as the problem was not fundamentally solved, there would still be another push for forests and farmlands.

Li Changfu did not answer Gu Kaiwen, and he picked up the wine glass, "Mr. Gu, let's have another drink!"

Gu Kaiwen did not refuse, but picked up the wine glass. The two of them clinked the glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"Mr. Gu, how do you think this problem should be solved?" Li Changfu put down his wine glass and looked at Gu Kaiwen and asked back.
Chapter completed!
